Antique French Linen Chemise — Circa 1900, Paris
Soft, faded, and steeped in history......this authentic French chemise was hand-woven from pure linen and later mended with care through generations. Its whisper-blue hue and visible darning capture the humble poetry of workwear once worn daily and lovingly preserved.
Perfect layered over modern linen or displayed as an heirloom piece, it embodies everything we love about true French vintage.....honest materials, handwork, and a life fully lived.
